    Hand washing suits.

    We just got a deluxe (I mean deluxe) washing machine. It has a cycle called "handwash." This is aside from the "slow/slow" cycle. I am assuming it is even slower. In fact, I think it moves barely or not at all. Think I should try it on something? Has anyone else a machine with such a cycle?

    Dust Bowl history

    Interesting. Thanks, Locktown. All I know is from the TV show Carnivale and I'm eager to know more.

    Zarah Leander "I know she wasn't on our side"

    That's great that you like this era of music. I love Kurt Weill. My collection of his works is huge. Talk to me any time. Nicely said.

    "Crisis, what Crisis?"

    Sounds like you either make enough money as a magician, or whatever it is you do, to do very well, or you married wealthy, or you inherited money. In any case, bravo and good for you. I wish you continued good wealth, good health, and good times.

    Style Apogee?

    I think it'll be thin ties if anything. It will also need to be machine-washable.

    Running for office is marvelous. I put my vote behind the best likely candidate. I won't vote for Nader. He has no chance and I want my vote to go to someone who has a chance. Everything is a balance between ideals and practicality. I'm not a purist in any impractical sense. But back...

    Ever yearn for a vintage name?

    In my lights the Arthurian spelling is much more impressive than either Jennifer or Gennapher.

    If you REALLY hate them both, OK. But voting isn't about who you really love and feel a great connexion to (although this Presidential election seems to be an exception for many, including me). Voting is usually about choosing the lesser evil. Normally I say to myself "I don't like this schmuck...

    #1 is but a small (though not insignificant) portion of the thing that could be called patriotism. #2 I agree with wholeheartedly and I see it a lot.

    I vote. Always. All the time. I never fail. And I don't vote for invasions a whole lot. I think it is unpatriotic not to vote. Nighthawk, I LOVE DEVIL'S ADVOCATES and always have. I asked my dad when I was 8 years old that very question (whether we might be better with a benevolent dictator...

    I hate jingoism. And most but not all of the people I've met who think their country is superior to all other countries on some scale, no matter what country they are from, have struck me as highly provincial. But people need to love their country in the same way they need to love their...
